🏰 Why maybe you should pass on dating that person with the dad who murders everyone trying to date them 🏰

The tale of Degarré is a story of knights, chivalry, violence, and grappling with what it means when the person you've idolized and sought your whole life...might just be the villain of the story.
😈 The Creature: Ninmenju (人面樹)
That tree that thinks you're HILARIOUS...until you bite into its face fruit.

Show notes

📝A Cavern Full of Snakes is apparently a Great Classroom📝

Hasib is still stuck in the room with the Queen of Serpents and twelve thousand snakes, and the QoS a story to tell. Two of them, actually. Long ones. Two years' worth of stories of guys lost in the world...and two different ways of dealing with mistakes and loss. Basically, she's being a very tricky teacher.

👹If you can't be with the one you love...👹

Love the one you're with? What? No. Kill everyone in your way until you get what you want. This week: a ghost story from Japan about what happens when a ronin, a masterless samurai, has nothing to lose in a quest to regain what he lost, and the people unfortunate enough to be in his way.

389: Korean folklore: Star-crossed Oct 16, 2024

Show notes

🖤 The story of why you don't menace crows. Even if the people you're doing it to try to mess with are extremely annoying and lovey-dovey. Or, if you're single and looking, here's why you should definitely throw some rocks at some crows. It might just lead to you meeting the love of your life... sixteen years later, after several trips through an active war zone. This is the unlikely love story of Pang Noo and Uhn Hah.

😈 The Creature: Vu-Murt
He's not a convenience store. He's not a generic superhero. He's that naked man combing his hair by the lake.
